Do you have to? or are you driving a fancy car, taking vacations, buying name brand clothing, spending money on over priced drinks.... i don't think you have to, i think you care about spending money on something that doesn't matter more than that mother and her children.
"Nice" cars, taking a Vacation, and name brand clothing isn't the demographic of rich we should all be fighting against. The actual rich wouldn't define anything they do or buy that way. They don't buy nice or fancy cars, they buy luxury cars. They don't buy name brand clothes, they buy designer clothes. They don't go on vacation, they just travel to their 10th summer home on their 3rs yacht and take a couple conference calls on the way.
I hate seeing the definition of middle class and the lower class fighting against each other. That's literally what the ultra rich want, they love it, it's their other favorite hobby.
Just because someone might barely make it out of the lower class and be able to afford a higher trim level on their Honda, and actually take a vacation doesn't mean that's a bad thing, what should fighting together for that be a thing for everyone in the lower class.
The whole reason a middle class was ever allowed was to keep the poors from eating the rich.
Yes i have to. Every unit has to be a net positive to itself or at least stay a small net negative so other units can catch a non-scheduled repair. I'm pretty sure the tenant wouldn't be happy to have to look for a new place just because a pipe broke.
Yes, i drive a Taycan and my wife has an ID.5.
Yes, i sit in my garden and enjoy whatever the weather allows me to.
Yes, i exclusively buy clothes made from good quality natural materials. A sweater of the brand of clothes i buy costs about 160€ and lasts about 8 Years. I have not had to replace one yet and i own about 40 pieces of clothing in total. Not counting suits.
What is an overpriced drink? I drink filtered tapwater, sometimes carbonated and at the rare occasion that i eat in a more fancier setting i drink Sprite.
